I need to have an integrated membership registration/login (which will include a tiered pay wall) that will work to pass the username, verification, and membership level between my main site and the forum software. So that when a user signs up on the main site and pays, they are automatically given access to the forums with the proper level of permissions based on their membership.
On another site (with another board software package) I simply kept two member databases and was able to use a couple php commands to pass the login verification back and forth between the site and the forum software. I haven't been able to find any such mention of how this could be done with xenforo; but I'm sure it must be possible.
Or is there an addon already built with this capability?
If not, can someone point me in the right direction for php commands that would be useful to verify user exists and automatically log them in?
I was also thinking I could possibly just use the xenforo upgrade option for all membership purchases, if I can figure out a way to hand that back to my main site pages after signup. Not sure if that will be easier or more complicated though.
Anyways, any help would be appreciated. I've spent a few hours trying to search the forums and reading all the manuals and support docs; but I can't find any references to anything like this.
